Steinway O Board Bottom Finished



The final step in preparing the board for installation is to finish the bottom side. The top side will be finished after installation as there are several trim pieces that need to be installed. A radius is cut on the top of each rib with a special hand plane. Then the whole bottom side is sealed, sanded and masked for the final applications of lacquer. It's always fun to set the new board beside the old, and just sit back for a few minutes and enjoy the satisfaction of a completed project.
